“Remember when Joseph said to his father: O my father! Verily, I dreamt eleven stars and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating themselves to me. He (the father) said: "O my son! Relate not your vision to your brothers, lest they arrange a plot against you. Verily! Satan is to man an open enemy! Thus will your Lord choose you and teach you the interpretation of dreams and perfect His Favor on you ... Verily, in Joseph and his brethren, there were signs for those who seek. The Quran, Sura Joseph 12:4, 5, 6, 7.

And Joseph raised his parents to the throne and they fell down before him prostrate. And he said: "O my father! This is the interpretation of my dream aforetime! My Lord has made it come true! ...

"My Lord! You have indeed bestowed on me of the sovereignty, and taught me the interpretation of dreams;" ... The Quran, 12:100, 101"

Dream is such a mysterious phenomena! until recently in human history it has always been part of occult or esoteric spectrum of knowledge. Mystics, prophets, sages all told, so also agree modern day researchers that dream holds key 'to something'; this something depending on where you stand and how you look at the reality.

Now modern Neuroscience and Consciousness research is focusing to unveil the mysteries of mind and its dreaming, but we are still in its infancy as far as understanding of consciousness and subconsciousness goes.

The highly cultivated masters of humanity and the brotherhood and sisterhood of 'Light' are blessed with the ability to appear over another persons dream. It is very often reported by many that Sufi masters appear to their dreams, even many westerners who haven't heard about Sufism whatsoever, are visited by Sufi master which awakens them to another reality. Yogis of India have this ability, so do the Lama masters. In eastern tradition as well as western tradition, native American culture or Shamanism and you name it; in virtually all traditions people appearing in dream can be traced. By appearing I mean not just appearing, but with esoteric significance.

One of the most interesting description of appearance in dream without any earlier encounter between the two is Sufi teacher Bawa Muhaiyadeen's appearing to Coleman Bark's dream which opened the door of inspiration for Coleman's wondrous work on Rumi. Coleman Bark's fresh and original translations of Rumi's work are largely responsible for Rumi's becoming the best-selling poet in the west and specially in America.
